Rain, Rain, Go Away. Come Again, Another Day...


The weather here is all wack-a-doodle these days. Eighty degrees and sunny one day. Fifty and rainy the next. Shorts and tank tops on Monday. Sweaters and wellies by Thursday. Makes for way too much laundry. And too much laundry makes me tired.

All that laundry kicked my butt. I just couldn't keep my eyes open any longer. Good thing it was one of those rainy days today. So I was able to catch a little afternoon nap. 


Yep. I'm sure it was the laundry that knocked me up out. I'm sure it had nothing to do with our lunch date today. BSD and I went out for Mexican. 

He had a quesadilla.


I had fajitas.

We came home for dessert. And a nap. I'm telling you. That laundry WORE ME OUT. Unfortunately, our nap only lasted about 20 minutes. And then the ballerinas were due home. Major buzz kill.

So later this evening as BSD was carrying his pile of clean clothes upstairs, he turned to me and said, "Let's do that again the next time it rains."

"Sounds good to me," I replied. "But let's go EARLIER. I need more than a 20 minute nap."

"Oh, yeah. Good idea," he answered. "Do you think they open at 11am?"

Yep, all that laundry sure can make a girl tired! ;)

A lunch date in the rain sounds perfect! Fajitas and margaritas can make any rainy day better!

My husband and I usually meet for lunch once or twice a week...usually Subway. I need to tell him we need to kick it up a notch!

Awww, I love lunch dates with my hubby! Glad you got to go on one...I agree 20 minutes for a nap is not nearly enough.

I despise doing laundry...

We do lunch dates a couple times a month too. But like someone else said, I think we need to kick it up a notch :-) And laundry, ugh. That's what's tiring me out today!

Awe, I love this! I totally would love an afternoon like that with my hubs.

That margarita looks so yummy!! It is just about 5 o'clock here, and it's Friday, yeah, time for a little something!

Have a great weekend!

I know what it means to go out for margaritas and then have a "nap" ;)
Sounds like a wonderful way to spend a rainy day!
